My mom used to make this all the time to drizzle over fresh endive…it’s a country classic. This dressing is very good added to homemade hot potato salad too.
4 slices bacon
2 T. sugar
2 T. all-purpose flour
1 egg, beaten
2 T. cider vinegar
1/4 c. water
3/4 c. milk
In a skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp. Remove bacon and reserve drippings in skillet. In a small bowl, mix sugar, flour, egg and vinegar until smooth. Stir in water and milk and add to drippings. Crumble bacon and return to skillet. Cook over medium-low heat until thickened. More water or milk may be added until dressing reaches desired consistency. Serve warm. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week. Makes about 2 cups.
